No compose characters possible with asian language setting

Hello! I'm currently using SuSE 9.0 pro for both german and japanese input. This works fine so far, by setting the variables LC_CTYPE to ja_JP.UTF-8 and LANG to de_DE.UTF-8, but nevertheless I experienced a problem: With the LC_CTYPE set to japanese and an input method running (currently kinput2), I cannot type european language compose characters any more - at least the ones I used to produce with two sequent keystrokes ( ´ and e for é for example). The rest of my (german) keyboard layout works all fine, and with LC_CTYPE set to german, é's, à's, ô's, etc pose no problem, but then, of course, I cannot input japanese... This problem seems also to be existent for other language settings that use an input method, I tried it out with a friend who uses chinese input (also on SuSE 9.0 pro). We (my friend and I) are currently writing an article about asian language input with StarOffice/OOo, so we would really appreciate any help or hint concerning this problem. Thanks. Marcel Boeing

[opensuse-m17n] scim in 10.3 producing ascii7 mojibake
by PILCH Hartmut 03 Apr '08

Hi, After (finally) installing opensuse 10.3 on one machine, I found my scim input system impaired. I can still input normally into firefox but not into xterm (or xterm-based mutt) nor into emacs. Whenever I try to input something there, I get a string of plain 7bit characters, including control characters, e.g. "C$" for "ä", "C6" for "ö", "C<" for "ü", "g" + bell sound for "睡眠", "*c" + line deletion for "かな". I still haven't researched much into this, will continue to try to narrow the bug down. Has something like this been reported before? -- PILCH Hartmut 裴寒牧ピルヒ・ハルトムート http://a2e.de/phm -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-m17n+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-m17n+help(a)opensuse.org
